London 2012 Olympic Competition

8 break points for Federer and none taken yet.
 
epic hold
 
This is silly from Federer. 8 break points and not a single break. And between 2-2 in the first and 2-0 in the first he was awful. Hope that spell doesn't cost him the match.
 
Great hold and unlike at Wimbledon he holds the game that dragged on. Some unbelievable shots from Murray so far, he just needs to keep it going and concentrate.
 
will Murry have anything left for the mixed doubles later.

I would say he is more focused on this, the mixed will be a bonus he knows he will get silver for that at the least.
 
Federer's been broken 3 times in a row. Needs to stop it from being 4.
 
Broken 4 times in a row. One of best servers serving this badly. Wow.
 
Rare you see Fed lose 8 games in a row.
 
It can still go tits up from here for Murray. If he can go 2 sets and a break up in the 3rd, the pressure will be almost unbearable....

Nah if it goes to that I can't see a 30 year old Federer conjuring up the resources to fight back. If it gets to that stage pressure will replaced by extreme confidence and momentum.
 
Better hold from Murray there but he needs to keep serving more like the end of that game there to make his life easier for rest of the final.
 
Castle please just feck off you nonsensical retarded cnut..why do I find myself repeating these words every July
 
Oh well. If I had to choose one for Federer to win it would have been Wimbledon by a mile so can't complain, really.
 
They better not have to close the roof.

I actually think Federer would have rather had this to be honest. He hasn't won it yet and it's the one thing he's desperate to win. This will be his last chance too.

No chance. He players know how to pay lip service but this isn't one of the big pots. If this was Wimbledon Nadal would have shown up. But I'm sure Federer would love to win it regardless.

Could be the case. But I value Wimbledon much much higher. Most of this tournament is in 3 sets as well. Not devaluing the achievement should either player win but a GS is what matters most IMO.
